Easy Thai Chicken & Peanut Noodles Recipe

Looking for something quick, easy, and different for Dinner? In less than 30 minutes, you can have these fabulous Thai Chicken & Peanut Noodles ready to serve. Believe it or not, this dish uses ramen noodles which cook in only 2 minutes. The sauce ingredients can be gathered and put together in about 15 minutes, and it can be cooked while waiting for the water to boil the noodles.
All of the ingredients for these slightly spicy noodles are available at the grocery store; the Thai red curry paste and coconut milk are on the aisle with the Asian foods. There is minimum chopping necessary; just a head of cabbage, some peanuts, and a few green onions; to save time on the cabbage, use two 10 ounce packages of coleslaw mix in place of the head of cabbage. The carrots in the mix add color and flavor to the dish. A boning knife makes quick work of the chicken breasts; slice them as thin as possible on the diagonal.

These noodles were the hands-down favorite at a cooking class I taught recently, and once you taste them, there’s a good chance they’ll be a favorite of yours too.
